Launch of Nagrik Samwad & Sahayata Kendra (NSSK) in Tehri Gharwal, Uttarakhand
Soochna Seva team received a special invitation from Social Welfare Department in order to support a Health camp in Pratap Inter College, in Baurari, New Tehri, Tehri Garwhal, on 23rd December 2015,
This event was basically organised to provide disability certificates to the differently abled people so as to help them in getting benefits that they are entitled for such as wheelchairs and stick distribution on the spot. This camp also had various other stalls like: dental, psychological, paediatric, orthopaedic, optho, drug dependent treatment centre. Apart from this, the camp also had many other stalls displaying govt. schemes like PMJDY, APY etc. Banks like Union Bank of India and State Bank of India stalls were also there to facilitate the procedure of availing the two schemes on the spot.
Soochna Seva team was present there along with the Soochna Vahan to inform people about the soochna seva programme and its objectives. Besides this digital services like photocopy, printout, photographs and internet have also been provided. The stall of Soochna Seva Kendra was a big hit as almost everyone present in the camp visited our stall to get the service of photocopy, printout etc.
The stall was also visited by Mr Dinesh Dhanay (Cultural and Tourism minister), Mr. Surender Singh Negi (Health Minister), Mr. Vikram Singh Negi (MLA Pratap Nagar) and many other Govt. Officials like Mr. Iqbal Ahmed (Chief Development Officer), Mr. Avinash Bhaduria (District Social Welfare Officer) are the names among all those who came and appreciated our work and motto of community service.
During the camp we registered a footfall of over 300 people who came to our stall to get their photocopies, printout and passport size photographs on the spot so as to complete their relevant documentations. Around 700+ photocopies, 45 passport size photographs, with more than 65 printouts of the scheme forms has been done during the whole day. We acted as a resource point for the participants who often found difficulties in availing schemes due to lack of digital services in nearby locations.
